Using the Infusionsoft REST Source Component

The REST Source component is an SSIS source component that can be used to read/retrieve data from Infusionsoft REST services and produce column data which can then be consumed by a downstream SSIS pipeline component.

The component includes the following two pages to configure how you want to read data.

General

Columns

General Page

The General page of the REST Source Component allows you to specify the general settings of the component.

Connection Manager

The source component requires an REST connection to Infusionsoft. The Connection Manager drop-down will show a list of all connection managers that are available to your current SSIS package.

Source Object

The Source Object drop-down lists available objects which you can read from.

Endpoint

The Endpoint drop-down lists all available rest endpoints for the selected object.

Batch Size

The Batch Size lets you specify how many records to retrieve per service call to Infusionsoft.

Note: Some objects do not support batch size, so this option will become disabled.

Output Time Zone

The Output Timezone option lets you specify how all datetime fields should be retrieved. Available options are:

UTC

Local

Filter Parameters

You can specify Filtering Parameters so that the source component only returns those records that satisfy such filtering parameters.

Note: Filter fields may vary from object to object depending on endpoints.

Refresh Component Button

Clicking the Refresh Component button causes the component to retrieve the latest metadata and update each field to its most recent metadata.

Expression fx Icon

Click the blue fx icon to launch SSIS Expression Editor to enable dynamic update of the property at run time.

Generate Documentation Icon

Click the Generate Documentation icon to generate a Word document which describes the component's metadata including relevant mapping, and so on.

Columns page

The Columns page of the REST Source Component shows you all available attributes from the endpoint that you specified on the General page. In this page, you can select the output whose columns you wish to configure in the top left drop-down.

On the top left of the grid, you can see a checkbox, which can be used to toggle the selection of all available fields. This is a productive way to check or uncheck all available fields.

The Columns Page grid consists of:

REST Field: Column that will be retrieved from Infusionsoft REST service.

Data Type: The data type of this field.

Note: As a general best practice, you should only select the fields that are needed for the downstream pipeline components.
